Marin Cilic vs Jaume Munar prediction

Cilic has reached six grass-court finals in his career so far, winning three titles on the surface. The last of these came at the 2021 Stuttgart Open, where he won 7-6 (2), 6-3 against Felix Auger-Aliassime. He has a 70 percent win rate at Wimbledon, with his best performance being in 2017, when he reached the final, losing to Roger Federer.

Munar has yet to reach a grass-court final in his career, with his only career final coming on clay. This has been the Spaniard's best result at Wimbledon, as he had never made it past the second round in his previous appearances.

Cilic is the firm favorite to win as he has a positive record against Munar, and the Croatian player's strength is playing on grass.

Pick- Cilic to win in straight sets
